I agree. Having a conversation with the codebase in context is a much better experience with Flash 3.7

Has anyone noticed that antigravity has been working really well for the last few weeks. Now with this model it should be working much better. Hope the Google AI Pro Subscription can be used to do some real agentic coding now.

I am working on analytics for AI chat and search. Suppose you have a sports shoe brand, then you would like to track what AIs recommend when they are asked "best running shoe".

Only google serves its own model - increasing its cloud revenue. The growth chart shows linear increase over time, indicating exponential growth if cloud revenue for google.

100% - although it is stunning to see since most LLMs get CORS questions right (which is surprising since they trained on all sorts of incorrect data).

Thanks for the answer. I use DB replicas (so all dns servers have a common backend), but only one accepts writes.

I still can not figure out any economical way to roll out anycast.

How do the geo distributed secondaries work? How do they sync?

Also, is there anycasting?

I like the design. (Might be a hot take)

No! - me after reading the title. I am unable to hire any more interns and junior devs. Simply because there is no way I can justify the time and money spent behind them. Money is not the issue - time taken to make them productive is not worth now.

So_reuseaddr naming is more accurate on Windows

ghoshbishakh — Fri, 17 Apr 2026 05:41:03 +0000

SO_REUSEADDR has a completely different meaning on Windows - which I did not know since I never tried it.

On Linux, SO_REUSEADDR just lets you rebind a port stuck in TIME_WAIT. It WON'T allow multiple active listeners on the same port.

On Windows, it is permissive. Multiple sockets CAN bind to the same address and port if they all set SO_REUSEADDR, which breaks exclusivity. Instead, we need to use the option SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE.

More interestingly, on macOS , it sits in between. SO_REUSEADDR can allow multiple binds under certain conditions (ask an LLM or read the man page for more on that).

Same name. Different guarantees.

Countries like India have higher adoption (>70%) because of 4G/5G abundance. Legacy broadband providers hold back IPv6 usage.

Tell HN: AI coding is not for the impatient

ghoshbishakh — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 14:14:36 +0000

AI coding requires patience. Not because the models are slow, but because the workflow itself is iterative.

Many people say AI coding tools are overhyped because they don’t give perfect code in one prompt. But that expectation is wrong.

AI works better if you treat it like working with a very fast junior engineer. Give a small task. Look at the output. Fix the instruction. Repeat.

If you ask for a whole system in one prompt the result is usually messy. But if you break the work into smaller parts like functions or modules the results become much better.

The key skill is not prompt tricks. It is patience and breaking problems into small pieces and iterating.
